Many of us have asked how in hell this could happen so often. Well, I have the answer.
Naval ships, designed to avoid detection by enemy fleets and aircraft, are exempt from an international requirement that vessels automatically and continuously broadcast their position, course and speed. They tend to have fewer lights than many commercial vessels, making them harder to pick out. They are painted gray to blend into the sea during wartime but become even more difficult to spot at night. And a growing number of modern naval vessels, including the John S. McCain, are designed to scatter incoming radar signals, so that they are less detectable.

In times like these, race just doesn't matter.
But not all the news is good.
Just something else for those poor bastards to worry about.

Do you trust this man to do the prudent thing in handling the North Korean problem?
I don't either.

This should be all children's memories of interaction with law enforcement.
This goes against a species imperative...protecting your offspring.

Probably.

I don't even know exactly what he's doing...
But I do know I don't want to do it.
Him smoking a cigarette seems very understandable.

What we have here is a failure to communicate.

Young people at my bar pronounced Nice, France like the english word nice. I corrected them and was told they didn't even know where it was. I told them they should know that and was rebuffed about such knowledge was useless.
They would have no idea why this is clever.
The whole Ottoman army was approaching Vlad's castle and he was greatly outnumbered. Here's what he did:
1. He burned EVERYTHING between himself and the enemy army. Poisoned the wells and burned whole cities so the army could forage nothing to eat or drink.
2. He had his troops set up thousands of every kind of booby traps to slow them down.
3. He took all the plague victims and other sick and insane people and pushed them out to confront the army in the confines of a dense forest.
4. All of his captured enemies from his last engagement and every criminal in his kingdom were impaled on thousands spikes...a forest of spikes...men, women and children.
Seeing this, the Ottoman Army turned and went home.

The resemblance is uncanny.

You have to respect people who know what they are doing.
Here are some more with a surprise or two.
His expression...I've seen it a thousand times at tittie bars.
This man is shotgunning soup!

Cargo Cults in Melanesia
An indigenous tribe built this scale model of a plane out of dried grasses and presumably spent countless grueling hours clearing the woodland around it to make a runway for a plane that can't fly?
They could not speak the language of their visitors but they observed their strange customs: parading with sticks (rifles) for hours, saluting, and most importantly how they received cargo drops which granted them goods which the Melanesians didn't believe could've been made by man! And all they had to do was write on paper!
They immediately set about imitating these practices in an effort to please the God that had the decency to drop Jeeps and rations. Some believed his name was John Frum. They even rejected Christianity in favor of their cargo deity. Some continue to this day.

Wine corks.
As I understand it, the synthetic ones are just as good and much, much cheaper.

If I'm not mistaken, they measured this by internet searches. But why search for it when you can throw a dead cat without hitting images of women's breasts.
That would be so much more interesting if they were doing it with their nostrils.

But it could be worse.
Here's the full fascinating story.
What I found most perplexing was that she was 18 before this malady was discovered. Think about that for a moment.
